Hey... I was wondering if you could make this code so that the people who come on to your website can see the tournament standings but can't mess around with them... I want to be able to post the tournament standings, and I don't want them to be changed...

Thanks...

Hi Jon...

unless anyone has the ability to edit your page from the server itself....
they cannot alter your page at all.

unless provided with a dynamic alternative...
your page is static and cannot be changed by a visitor viewing your page.

okay?

Hi (again) Jon...

sorry... i just noticed the link to the Javascript.com script :rolleyes: .

i'll look at it and see if i can understand a way to capture the entry's and then just display the ongoing results in static view.

okay... let's see...

it's a bit of a gimmicky script... and not very real-word usable... but...

without re-writing the entire script, you may be able to hard code the actual name and selection values into the code's variables after the initial entries are selected.

Then... each following round will need to be done the same way.

it's not really a secure script.
i think it's meant for personally tracking your own selections... based on the honor system.
so if money is at stake...this ain't the script that i'd trust my cash to control.

sorry if that's not what you wanted to hear (maybe someone will suggest something more usefull)...
